A government is for the benefit of all the people.

If inequalities of taxable wealth backing up a government service are construed as denying equality before the law, then there is no solution but to have every government service whatever financed out of Washington.

All that a good government aims at... is to add no unnecessary and artificial aid to the force of its own unavoidable consequences, and to abstain from fortifying and accumulating social inequality as a means of increasing political inequalities.

When you have a new government assume power, everyone, without exception, has to work for the benefit of the common good.

You can't give the government the power to do good without also giving it the power to do bad - in fact, to do anything it wants.

War is just one more big government program.

To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction.

The Reagan program is not working because the program is not fair - and, just as important, because the people themselves know it is not fair.
